I'm not *yet* a kindle owner (seriously considering, it, but waiting on the nook reviews), but it's my understanding that the web browser is very useful when trying to load your kindle with free, public-domain books.
I don't think so. I'll know for sure in a few days though. I have ordered one for a gift that will be coming here first and I plan on putting it through all its paces
